Protocol (PROT. xx)
Communication protocol available between the controller and the control
device (for example, a PC program):
• SPID ROT1 - Standard communication for all
A
lfaSpid rotators and
controllers in Azimuth mode
• SPID ROT2 - Standard communication for all
A
lfaSpid rotators and
controllers in Elevation / Azimuth mode
• YAESU - YAESU mode may not support the full capability of
AlfaSpid
rotators.
• SPID MD-01 - Future. New communication protocol from SPID Elektronik
• BRITE - Future. New protocol created by SPID Elektronik firm and
Space Analysis Center in Warsaw.
• HyGain - Future.
• Future protocols are not guaranteed to be developed.
PAIR
Only when the selected template is 1: AZ; 2: AZ and the MD-01 is
controlled from an external program. When the MD-01 receives an
azimuth angle from the program, both rotors will go to this angle.
Set motors (SET MOTOR 1, SET MOTOR 2)
• STATE
Read only. Depends on the TEMPLATE selected (see Motor configuration
-> TEMPLATE). It displays whether the motor is switched on or
switched off.
• TYPE
Type of motor return signal:
• DIGITAL – controller counts pulses,
• ANALOG – in the future. Controller measures the voltage.
KIND
Read only. Depends on the TEMPLATE selected (see Motor configuration
-> TEMPLATE):
